Linux kernel source tree

The function svm_range_validate_and_map() was freeing `range` when
amdgpu_hmm_range_get_pages() failed. But later, the code still used the
same `range` pointer and freed it again. This could cause a
use-after-free and double-free issue.
The fix sets `range = NULL` right after it is freed and checks for
`range` before using or freeing it again.
v2: Removed duplicate !r check in the condition for clarity.
v3: In amdgpu_hmm_range_get_pages(), when hmm_range_fault() fails, we
kvfree(pfns) but leave the pointer in hmm_range->hmm_pfns still pointing
to freed memory. The caller (or amdgpu_hmm_range_free(range)) may try to
free range->hmm_range.hmm_pfns again, causing a double free, Setting
hmm_range->hmm_pfns = NULL immediately after kvfree(pfns) prevents both
double free. (Philip)
In svm_range_validate_and_map(), When r == 0, it means success → range
is not NULL. When r != 0, it means failure → already made range = NULL.
So checking both (!r && range) is unnecessary because the moment r == 0,
we automatically know range exists and is safe to use. (Philip)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
